Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia seems try and offer a little something for everyone — which is both the game’s selling point and downfall. Though it is accessible and enjoyable for many, it means everything that makes the anime so enjoyable is being spread too thin. It needs to be more focused, less complicated, and the good aspects need to be made great.
As I’m sure you’ve sensed, the gist of it is that Shu is phenomenally well done. No, it may not be a power house in the charts, or a completely new trendsetter, but it is genre defining. Shu is the ultimate example of how a game should take its desired platform and then shape it into the most perfect game that platform has seen. It knows itself and it pronounces it proudly as a seminal indie classic, and it has secured itself a place in my heart.
Overall though, I’d highly recommend Armello to fans of Hearthstone, World of Warcraft, Starcraft, D&D, or anyone wanting to branch out from traditional board games. The graphics, though not the most exceptional in terms of quality, are beautiful; the combination of 3D effects with almost anime-esque cu scenes gives the game a unique and striking look. It’s interesting, the music has a calming effect, and it gives so much for a relatively unknown game, for not much money.
